I can't wait. I hope it's better than that last thing he put out. I'm sure it will be. Digital Shades sounds like unfinished skeleton tracks for a merely mediocre ambient album.

Yes, I was thinking they feel like rough sketches. I kind of enjoy it, though. There are some nice sounds, even if it never amounts to much. The whole thing is short and fleeting. Not great, but it'll do until the new album.

A huge step down.

A few days ago, someone mentioned the remake of Susperia, and I was thinking of how awesome it would be if M83 wrote the score.

This would be amazing.

The first half of his last album was tremendous, the second half not so much, and Car Chase Terror was a joke.

Still looking forward to the new one.

Good stuff!

The Constantines - Our Age

The entire album is one of 2008's most pleasant surprises so far.

**D_Davis** · 03-09-2008, 10:33 PM

Landslide, by Sad Lovers & Giants.

Good old post-punk.

Rilo Kiley - Under the Blacklight

This album was so underrated.

I thought it got its fair share of love last year with several critics calling them the modern Fleetwood Mac (and meant that as a compliment). I really like The Execution of All Things and there are some flashes of greatness on More Adventurous, but I really couldn't get into that one. If you like Rilo Kiley, or more importantly Stars, you should check out Headlight's Some Racing, Some Stopping. I like it better than either of those bands recent albums, though not quite as much as Set Yourself on Fire.

I thought it was terrible...if I had made one it would have been on my worst of 07 list.

Anyways I will be checking out Headlights based on your recommendation Derek.

Yeah, I thought it stunk. I got rid of it after 3 listens didn't improve my opinion. Mediocre through and through.

**Henry Gale** · 03-10-2008, 05:03 PM

I thought Under The Blacklight was okay, but I think it has a few real gems. I definitely found a song like "Dejalo" to be more fun and insanely catchy/addictive than most other things last year.

"Gimme Danger" - The Stooges

Huh. *shrug* Well that just supports my conviction that it was inexplicably underrated. Hell, I'd probably rather listen to it four out of five times over the merely "pretty good" In Rainbows that everyone slathered with praise last year.
